King Crimson Facts of Life song lyrics

Six billion ants crawling on a plate

Six billion ants crawling on a plate

None of them give back as much as they take

Six billion ants crawling on a plate

Doesn't mean you should just because you can

It doesn't mean you should just because you can

Like Abraham and Ishmael fighting over sand

It doesn't mean you should just because you can

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life

Now some of us build and some of us teach

Some of us build, some of us teach

And some of us kill what some of us eat

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life

Nobody knows what happens when you die

Nobody knows what happens when you die

Believe what you want, it doesn't mean you're right

That is a fact of life

That is a fact of life
